TAMPA, FL—U.S. Attorney Robert E. O’Neill announces that a federal jury today found Marian I. Morgan (57, Sarasota) guilty of 22 separate charges including conspiracy, wire fraud, interstate/foreign transportation of stolen funds, money laundering, and filing false tax returns. Morgan faces a maximum penalty of five years in federal prison on the conspiracy charge (count 1), 20 years in federal prison for each wire fraud charge (counts 2-8), 10 years in federal prison for each interstate/foreign transportation of stolen funds (counts 9-13), 10 years in federal prison for each money laundering charge (counts 14-19) and three years in federal prison for each charge of filing a false tax return (counts 20-22). Her sentencing hearing is scheduled for December 20, 2011.Marian I. Morgan was originally indicted on December 17, 2009. She was subsequently charged by a superseding indictment on May 31, 2011. Her husband, John Morgan was also indicted. He pleaded guilty to conspiracy and money laundering charges on June 21, 2011.According to the evidence presented during the seventeen days of trial, Marian and John Morgan, who resided in Sarasota, Florida, were principals of a company named Morgan European Holdings from about 2005 to 2009. They promoted sham “high yield/prime bank note” investment programs through the company, promising investors that they would receive returns of 200-300 percent in three months and that their principal funds would be held safe in an escrow account in Denmark. Evidence at trial, however, showed that the Morgans spent approximately $11 million of investor money on themselves soon after investors wired the funds to the escrow account.

The Morgans purchased luxury automobiles, a waterfront mansion, and numerous luxury items with investor funds. When investors inquired about the status of their investments, Marian I. Morgan sent repeated “lulling” communications, assuring the investors that their funds were safe in the escrow account. Between 2005 and 2009, the evidence showed that the Morgans took in over $28 million in investor funds and returned some funds in the form of Ponzi payments.In June 2009, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed an enforcement action in the Middle District of Florida against the Morgans and others alleging investment fraud. The evidence at trial showed that in response to the SEC action, Marian I. Morgan told investors to lie to SEC and not cooperate with the agency. When she and her husband fled the United States and did not return as ordered for a hearing in that case on July 16, 2009, United States District Judge Richard Lazzara issued a warrant for their arrest. The Morgans were arrested in August 2009 in the island nation of Sri Lanka after attempting to pass a forged financial instrument and were returned by federal agents to the United States in December 2009.

What is it, the high heat and humidity or the salt air from the Gulf of Mexico that makes normally sane individuals and banks in Sarasota turn over hundreds of thousands of dollars to men, some have criminal records, to make investments without checking them out ?Just recently it was revealed by the Sarasota Herald Tribune that one of the individuals scammed by ex-con Danile Prewett was a Sarasota police office Todd Perna , who did not bother to check Prewett’s background. Perna knew adviser Daniel Prewett as the head of the local Jackson Hewitt tax franchises, a guy who did his taxes and offered investments on behalf of the nationally respected chain. But the chief called Perna to his office and had a different story: Federal agents had just arrested Prewett on money laundering charges, and the chief wanted to know why Perna’s name was in his paperwork. Background checks of anyone one who handles your investment monies are simple to obtain and fairly inexpensive.

Terror mastermind and senior Al Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki is dead, senior U.S. officials confirmed to Fox News. Al-Awlaki, a U.S.-born Islamic militant cleric who became a prominent figure in Al Qaeda's most active branch, using his fluent English and Internet savvy to draw recruits to carry out attacks in the United States, was killed Friday in the mountains of Yemen, American and Yemeni officials said.
The Yemeni government and Defense Ministry announced al-Awlaki's death, but gave no details. A senior U.S. official said American intelligence supports the claim that he had been killed. Another confirmed that the Al Qaeda leader was dead, describing him as a "big fish." Neither would confirm or deny if it was a U.S. airstrike.

Al-Awlaki would be the most prominent Al Qaeda figure to be killed since Usama bin Laden's death in a U.S. raid in Pakistan in May. In July, U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said the Yemeni-American was a priority target alongside Ayman al-Zawahri, bin Laden's successor as the terror network's leader.

A 26-year-old Massachusetts Muslim was arrested Wednesday and accused of plotting to blow up the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol using large remote-controlled aircraft laden with explosives, as well as attempting to assist Al Qaeda in attacking U.S. troops overseas.

Rezwan Ferdaus, his photo above, of Ashland, Mass., was arrested Wednesday in Framingham after undercover FBI agents delivered weapons Ferdaus allegedly sought for the alleged plan. The stash included what he thought was 25 pounds of C-4 explosives, as well as three grenades and six fully-automatic AK-47 assault, a press release from the Department of Justice reads.

Ferdaus was arrested after he took the the materials and locked them in his storage unit, according to an affadavit that says the storage unit was rented under a false name in June.

In recorded conversations, Ferdaus said he planned to attack the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol using aircraft similar to “small drone airplanes” that were guided by GPS equipment, the affidavit said. The plan called for three remote-controlled aircraft to carry out the attacks, along with six other gunmen divided into two teams, with Ferdaus coordinating the operation.

Brenda Macmillan lives across the street from Ferdaus and wasn’t completely surprised by the news. “He would float up and down the street always with his head down and never really socialize with anyone,” she said. “He kept to himself.”
